Figure 8 is a view in the direction ofthe arrow 8 of Fig. 7, some partsbeing shown in section, and others beingremoved. for the sake ofclearmess.

The device illustrated in the drawings comprises a support l6 carrying acasing ll (Fig. 1). In the example illustrated the casing l 1 comprisesfive vertical slots [2, l3, l4, l5, and I6 through which project theshifting levers IT, l8, I9, 20, and 2!.

As shown more clearly in Figure 2 of the drawings, five rotary wheels22, 23, 24, 25, and 26 are situated within the casing H, and each of theshifting levers I? to 21 is used for shifting and releasing aseparatewheel. Obviously, the number of the Wheels may be varied atwill. The cylindrical side surfaces of the wheels are provided withvarious letters, numerals and/or signs. The casing H is provided withfive openings 21, 28, 29, 30, and 31. The dimensions of the numerals orsigns carried by the cylindrical side surfaces of the wheels 22 to 26should correspond to'the dimensions of the openings 21 to 3!. As will bedescribed hereinafter, the wheels 22 to 26 are mounted in such mannerthat when they are at a standstill, the signs or numerals are situatedopposite'the openings 21 to 3|, so that the player cannot see more thanone sign or numeral through each opening. The openings 2'! WM may becovered by glass, cellophane or any other suitable transparent material.

The casing II is provided with a long vertical slot 32 for the operatinglever 33 and a slot 34 for the insertion of a coin- (Fig. 1). Acontainer 35 for the'coins whichis carried by'the support In, issituated under theslot 34'.

As shown in Fig. 2, a number of supports or brackets 36,v 31, 38, 39 and46' and 4|, are used for supporting a rotatable shaft 42 which passesthrough openings formed in these brackets. A number" of coiled springs43, 44, d5, 46, and 41 surround the shaft 42. The end 48 of the spring43 bears against the adjacentsurface of the support 31. Correspondingends of the springs 44, 45, 46, and 4'! bear against the adjacentsupports 38, 39, and 4| respectively.

As shown more clearly in Figs. 3 and'4, the shaft 42 is not round incross-section, but is provided with parallel flat side surfaces 42a and42b.

The shaft 42 carries a sleeve 48' which is provided with a cylindricalinner surface. The sleeve 48' is rotatably and slidably mounted upon theshaft 42 below the wheel 22 and has outer conical end surfaces 49 and50. Similar sleeves 5|, 52, 53, and 54 are situated under the wheels 23,24-, 25, and 26 respectively.

A driving member 55'is slidably mounted upon the shaft 42 adjacent tothe sleeve 48'. As shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the member 55 comprises adisc 56 having inner surfaces which correspond to the surfaces of theshaft 42, so that it is rotatable along with theshaft 42. The disc 56carries radially disposed leaf springs 51, 58, 59, 60, and 6!, whichare'adap-ted to impart a rotary motion tothe wheel 22, as will bedescribed hereinafter.

The sleeves 5|, 52, 53, and 54 are in contact with similar drivingmembers 62, 63, 64, and

(Fig. 2). The coiled springs 43 to 41 which are situated between thebrackets 31 to 4| and the driving members 55 and 62 to 85, respectively,press each of the driving members against the adjacent sleeve.

The shifting lever I! which is used for shifting and releasing the wheel22 is carried by a pivot 66, which is mounted in the support 36 (Figs.3, 4, and 6). The end 81 of the lever I'I surrounds the shaft 42 andforms an arcuate opening 68. As shown more clearly in Fig. 6, the end 61of the lever I! has the shape of a curved cam surface by means of whichthe sleeve 48' may be shifted along the shaft 42 when the lever IT ismoved upward around its pivot 65 in a direction toward the wheel 22.

The levers I8, I9, 20, and 2I are provided with similar cam surfaces 69,10, II, and I2 used for causing a sliding movement of the sleeves 5 I,-52, 53, and 54 along the shaft 42.

The wheel 22 situated above the sleeve 48' is made of a single piece orfirmly connected with the wheel I3, having a smaller diameter than thewheel 22. As shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 4, the diameter of the wheel I3should be such that the leaf springs 51 to 6| of the driving member 55can come in contact with the cylindrical side surface of the wheel 13and cause a rotation of the wheel 13 and of the wheel 22 which isrigidly connected with the wheel I3.

The Wheels 23, 24, 25, and 26 are connected with wheels I4, I5, I6, and11, respectively, the last-mentioned wheels being similar to the wheelI3 (Fig.2). The wheels 22 to 26 and I3 to I! are rotatably mounted upona shaft 19 which is carried by the brackets 36 to 4| and which issubstantially parallel to and above the shaft 42. A sleeve or distancingpiece 18 is mounted upon the shaft I9 between the wheel 22, I3 and thebracket 36. Similar sleeves 80, 8|, 82, and 83 are situated between theother wheels and the brackets 31 to 40, respectively. 7

The wheel 22, I3 is rigidly connected with a pinion 84. The end of aresilient lever 85 carried by the support 31, slides over the teeth ofthe pinion 84 when the pinion 84'is rotated along with the wheel 22, 13.tion of the wheel 22, 13 comes to an end, the lever 86 will cause it tostop in such a position that the end 85 of the lever 86 will be situatedbetween two teeth of the pinion 84. Due to this arrangement the numeralsor signs situated upon the side surface of the wheel 22 may be arrangedin such manner, that when the wheel 22 is at rest, only one sign ornumeral will be seen through the opening 21. g

A similar lever 88 carried by the bracket 38 is in contact with a pinion81 rigidly connected with the wheel 14. The wheel 15 is rigidlyconnected with a pinion 89 which is in contact with a lever 90 carriedby the support 39. The wheel I6 is rigidly connected with a pinion 9|which is in contact with a lever 92 carried by the sup-- port 40, whilethe wheel 'I'I carries a similar pinion 93, in contact with a lever 94carried by the support 4|.

A sleeve 95 freely mounted upon the shaft 79 is used for maintaining thewheel 22 at a predetermined distance from the support 31. Another sleeve96 is situated between the pinion 81 and the support 38. A sleeve 9'! issituated between the pinion 89 and the support 39, the sleeve 98 issituated between the pinion 9! and the support 40, and the sleeve 99 issituated between the pinion 93 and the support 4|.

However, when the rota- As shown more clearly in Figs. '7 and 8 of thedrawings, the shaft 42 carries a pinion I00 which is rotatable alongwith the shaft. The operating lever 33 comprises an annular portion I0|surrounding the shaft 42. The lever 33 is movable within certain limitswith respect to the shaft 42, as will be described more fullyhereinafter.

A ratchet wheel I02 is carried by the shaft 42 between the support 4|and the annular portion I0! of the lever 33. The wheel I02 is rigidlyconnected with the shaft 42 and is rotatable along with said shaft. Inthe example illustrated in Fig. 8, the ratchet wheel I 02 is providedwith five teeth I03, I04, I05, I06, and I01.

A pawl I08 is mounted upon a pivot I09 which is carried by the lever 33.The pawl I08 is pressed by a spring IIO carried by the lever 33 againstthe teeth I 03 to I07 of the ratchet wheel I02.

The pinion I00 meshes with a toothed wheel III which is supported by abracket II2. As shown in Fig. 7, the toothed wheel III is provided withseveral angular holes I I3, II4, I15, I I6, and Ill. The wheel III alsocarries several projecting members H8, H9, I20, I2I, and I22 extendingsubstantially parallel to the axis of r0- tation of the toothed wheelIII. The openings M3 to Ill and the projections 8 to I22 are disposedsymmetrically upon the wheel III.

A lever I23 is supported intermediate its ends by a pivot I24 carried bythe support II2. The end I25 of the lever I23 has the shape of aprojection fitting into any one of the openings I I3 to I I? of thewheel III. The opposite end I26 of the lever I23 is in contact with aspring I2'I which is carried by the sup-port I I2 and which presses theend I26 of the lever I23 in a direction away from the support I|2,thereby pressing the end I25 of the lever I23 against the wheel III.

A coin I28 inserted through the slot 34 passes between two pairs ofrails or guides I29, L30, and I3I, I32. In the position shown in Figs. 7and 8, the projection H9 is situated underneath the guiding rails I3Iand I32, so that it supports the coin I28 situated between these rails.As soon as the projection H9 is removed the coin I 28 falls through theslot I33 into the container 35.

'When the end I25 of the lever I23 is situated in one of the openings 3to H1, it projects into the path of the abutment I34forming a part ofthe annular portion IOI of the lever 33, thereby preventing an upwardmovement of the lever 33, as shown in Figs. 2 and '7.

Another ratchet wheel I35 shown in Fig. 2 is rotatable along with theshaft 42 and is mounted upon said shaft close to the bracket 36. A pawlI36 pivotally mounted upon the bracket 36 meshes with the teeth of thewheel I 35 and is pressed against these teeth by a spring not shown inthe drawings. These parts prevent rotation of the shaft 42 in aclockwise direction, as viewed in Fig. 7. The driving elements or unitscarried by shaft 42, are therefore supported for rotation in only onedirection, that is, in counter-clockwise direction as viewed in Fig. '7.

The device is operated as follows:

When the shifting device is situated in the position shown in Fig. 2 ofthe drawings, the end I25 of the lever I23 passes through the openingI|| so that the wheel III is prevented from rotating. The end I25 of thelever I23 is also situated in front of the path of the abutment I34 sothat the lever 33 cannot be moved upward far enough to bring the pawlI08 into engagement with one of the teeth of the ratchet wheel I02 inorder toturn the. shaft. 42. In .this position the device is locked sothatit is; impossible tooperate it. without. first, inserting. a. coininto the slot 34.

A, coinIZB inserted into the slot34 will drop hetweenthe .rails. I29.and I'30.-.and between the rails I31 and. I32. until it strikes againstthe endI26 which is situated within. the space. between the two. railsI3I and I32. (Fig. 2). Thecoin I29 striking against the end I26 of.:thelever I23 will swing the lever. I23..around.its pivot I.24,.moving theend I26. toward the support H2 and pulling the end. I25 of the levervI23 out of the opening I II of the wheel II I. ThispositionisshowninFig. 8 of the drawings. I

Dueto the withdrawal of the end I25 out of the opening. I, the abutment.I34 of the lever 33 is freed so that.the..leve1:.33 can be swun aroundthe shaft 42. Ifthe lever 33 is swung upward the pawl I08 willp ass.over the tooth I! of the ratchet wheel I02. 'Ihenthe spring IIO willpress the pawl I08 againstthe inner surface of the tooth I01, therebyestablishingan operative connection between the lever 33 and the ratchetwheel I02.

In order to operate the device the player has to pull the lever 33-downward1'y. Since the pawl I08 engages the ratchet wheel I02, thiswheel will be rotatedalong with the annular portion. IIII of the lever33.- As has been mentioned already, the ratchet wheel I02 is firmlyconnected with the shaft 42 and with the pinion I00, so that a rotationof the ratchet wheel I0 2-by the lever 33 will cause a rotation of theshaft 42 and of the pinion I00.

As. shown more clearly in Figs. 2, 3, and 4 of the drawings, the drivingmembers 55,- 62, 63, 64 and 65, which are slidably mounted upon theshaft 42, are rotatable along with this shaft.

In the position shown in Fig. 2, the leaf springs 5I to SI of thedriving members are adapted tocome in contact with the cylindricalsurfaces of the wheels I3 to II. When the lever 33 is pulled downwardlythe shaft 42 performs one-fifth of a complete revolution and in rotatingit will rotate along with it the driving members 55 and-62 to 65. One ofthe leaf springs 51- to 6| of-each of these members will come in contactwith the cylindrical surfaces of each of the wheels I3 to II and willimpart a rotary movement to these wheels.

Since the wheels I3 to II which are rigidly connected with the wheels 22to 26, respectively. are freely mounted upon the shaft I9, these wheelswill rotate until they are stopped by friction and by the slidingcontact between the ends of the levers 86, 88, 90, 92, and 94, andthepinions 84, 81, 89, 9|, and 93, Due to the provision of these levers therotation of the wheels 22 to 26 will come to an end-when 'theseends ofthe levers 85, 8B, 90-, 92,- and 94 are situated between a pair ofadjacent teeth of the pinions 84, BI, 89, 9|, and 93.

In the example illustrated in thedrawings, the device comprises fivewheels 22 to 26 which are rotated by depressing the lever 33. On manyoccasions it may be desirable to operate the device in such manner thatonly some of the wheels 22 to 26 are rotated when the lever 33 isdepressed. In accordance with the present invention the shifting leversI1 to 2I are used for the purpose of shifting any desired number ofwheels 22-to 26.

In the position shown in Figs. 1 and2, the shifting levers II to H aredepressed. In this position the driving members 55 and-62 to 65 are.situated directly underneath their. respective wheels. I3. to. II sothat all of said wheels are rotatedrwhenthe lever 33 is depressed. Inorder to. disengage one of these wheels it is merely necessary. to.movethe corresponding shifting levers. upwardly from the position shownin Fig. 3

to. the position shown in Fig. 4 of-thedrawings.

- When, for instance, the. lever I1 is: swung upward'around its pivot66, the. cam surface 61 of the lever. I-I willmove. along. the conicalsurface 49ofthe sleeve48, and will push thesleeve 48.1 tothe. right(looking in the direction of Fig. 6) thereby compressingthe spring 43.Since the driving member 55 is in contact with the sleeve 4.8%,thedrivingrnember 55 ..will move along with the sleeve until itisplaced; in such a. position between the, wheel I3 and the support 3Tthat when. the shaft, 42. is rotated the leaf springs 51 to 64 of-thedrivingmember 55 will not'come in contact any more withthe wheel I3.When the. driving member 55- is. situated in this position, (Fig. 4)therotation of theshaft 42 will not cause any rotation of the wheel 22,since the springsS I-to 6| will not comein contact with the. associatedwheel I3.

In order. toput the wheel 22 into the play itis merely necessary to movethe lever II downwardly from the position shown inFig. 4 to the positionshown in Fig. 3. When the lever II is moved in this direction theconnection between the cam surface 61 andpthe. conical surface!!! isinterrupted so that, thespring 43 will push the driving member 55 backinto the position shownin Fig. 2, in which position one. ofthe springs 5to 6| of, the driving member 55 will come .in contact with the wheel I3andwill cause a rotation of this wheel as soon as the shaft 42 is.rotated.-

Since the .pinion I00; (Figs. '7 and 8) is rotated along with the shaft42 a rotation of the lever 33;-will also cause a rotation of thispinion, which will drive the toothed wheel II I. As has been mentionedalready, each depression of the lever 33 will cause a turning ofthe-pinion I00 to onefifth of a complete revolution. Since theprojection I.I9..supporting the coin I28rotates along with the wheel I II, the coin I28.wi ll'drop through the. opening I33 into the coin box 35as soon asthe projection I I9has passed beyond the guiding rails IBI-andI32.

Inthe example illustrated, when the lever 33 has. been fully depressed,in making a play, the end I25; of the lever I23 will be between theopenings H6 andIII. On the next play, however, the opening II6 will bein a, position to receivethe end I25;-of the lever I23. Due to thepressure of the spring I2! the end I25 of the lever I23 will passthrough the opening IIB and willlock the wheel III. At the same time theend I25 will prevent the lever 33 frombeing swung upwards so that thepawl I38 of the lever 33pwi1l not be able to engage oneof the teeth ofthe ratchet wheel I08 in order to rotate the shaft 42. The device willbe locked again and the 'lnsertion of another coin will be necessary toresume the game. It will therefore be seen, that, depending upon theratio between the gears I00 and III, two or more plays can be madebefore it'is necessary to insert another coin.

From the foregoing it will be seen that in my improved construction fora game of chance, there area plurality of members, such as the wheel22,13 forexample, supported for rotation about the axis of. the shaftI9, and thatthere are drivingunitsassociated respectively ith thesemembers for imparting rotary movement to the same, such as the drivingunit 55 for the wheel 22, 13. These units are rotatable about the axisof the shaft 42, which is parallel to the axis-of shaft 19. Withreference, for example, to the driving unit 55 for the wheel 22, 13, itis important to note that the elements 51, 58, 59, 60, and BI thereofare of spring material and that each is supported only at one endthereof and is disposed to engage its free end with peripheral surfaceof the associated wheel part 13. Upon rotary movement of this unit, asshown more clearly in Figs. 3 and 4, the distance between the points ofsupport of these elements and the peripheral surface of the wheel part13, is less than the length of these elements so that in moving thelever 33 down to make a play the element next in order first engages thewheel surface and is sprung'upon continued counter-clockwise rotation ofthe shaft 42, as viewed in Figs. 3 and'4, and is then released to spinthe member or wheel 22, 13 with a relatively quick snap action, at whichtime the lever 33 will have been moved to its horizontal position asshown in Fig. 1.

The lever 33 constitutes the means common with respect to'the drivingunits for operating the same, and causes these'to rotate about the axisof the shaft 42 in a step-by-step fashion in the required direction.
